What components do you need to make a simple series circuit to light on bulb?

You need a Battery, Light Bulb, Ammeter, Switch.


If a light bulb is missing in a series circuit will the bulb light?

If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.


How do you connect the parts of a simple electric circuit together so that the light bulb lights up?

Simply connect the -ve of the bulb to -ve of the battery and +ve of bulb to +ve of battery using an electrically conductive wire, the bulb will light automatically.


How do you know when electric current is flowing in a light bulb circuit?

You know if current is flowing in a bulb circuit because, if there is enough power (voltage times current), the bulb will illuminate. If there is current, but not enough power to illuminate the bulb, you will need to measure the current with an ammeter to see if there is any current.


How are series circuit and parallel circuits?

For parallel circuit, there's bronchus which mean the electric current'd have to choose which path to go. There's a main loop and more than one bronchus.If the bulb in one of the bronchus break down,the other bulbs would still light up. For series circuit,there's only one path for the electric current to flow through.If one of the bulb breaks down,the other'd go out as well. The electric current of evbery bulb in a series circuit is the same while the electric current of bulb in parallel circuit are not the same. The sum of the bronchus in a parallel circuit is equal to the main loop's.The more bulbs in a path,the more resistance will there be and less brighter it will be.A larger current will flow through the path with lower resistance so te brightness of the bulb of the bronchus will hace differences asc well.

How is adding a ammeter to a circuit different from adding a light bulb?

When you add a light bulb, you are adding a load, which performs a function - in this case, it converts electrical energy to light and heat energy. When you add an ammeter, most of the time you intend to measure the current in the circuit, which is the function of the ammeter. Thus the two electrical components differ in their function and does different things when added to a circuit.
